Responsibilities: NSA Research Scientists are actively expanding the boundaries of what can be accomplished with artificial intelligence, machine learning, human-machine teaming, software reverse engineering, vulnerability discovery, data science, novel architectures, cyber security, high performance computing, and computational linguistics. Our experts generalize mission problems, advance the scientific state-of-the-art to solve problems, and work with other NSA organizations to get solutions in front of mission users and decision-makers. Our researchers also have the opportunity to collaborate regularly with the scientific community, academia, industry, and other government laboratories; publish papers on unclassified aspects of our work in scientific journals and at conferences; transfer NSA technology to the marketplace through open source software releases and public-private partnerships; serve as faculty members at local universities; and participate in university and K-12...

Responsibilities: At NSA, mathematics and statistics are core disciplines present in every aspect of our mission: to protect our Nation. The mission requires a strong offense and a steadfast defense. The offense collects, processes, and disseminates intelligence information derived from foreign signals for intelligence and counterintelligence purposes. The defense prevents adversaries from gaining access to sensitive classified national security information. Mathematicians and Mathematical Statisticians contribute across our mission by bringing both subject matter expertise and creative, critical thinking. A wide range of technical expertise finds a natural fit at NSA including, but not limited to, fields of algebra, combinatorics, Fourier analysis, operations research, graph analytics, regression, machine learning, exploratory data analysis, stochastic processes, statistical modeling, forecasting, and cryptography. NSA solves its hardest problems and develops innovative...

Responsibilities: AI Research at NSA is a specialized discipline that intersects machine learning, experimental science, and software prototyping. AI Researchers answer open questions about AI system behavior, develop the methods and adaptations that make those systems effective under Agency data and constraints, and build the prototypes that demonstrate new capabilities. Individual researchers lean toward evaluation, method development, or applied prototyping based on background and assignment; most projects draw on all three. Responsibilities include: - Design and run experiments that characterize AI system capability, behavior, and failure modes; build benchmarks and evaluation methodology where none exist. - Develop training, fine-tuning, retrieval, and inference techniques suited to Agency data, scale, and security constraints. - Prototype novel AI applications and agentic systems that put emerging capabilities in analysts' hands, and iterate them based on user feedback. -...

Responsibilities: About the Psychology Practicum Program The Employee Assistance Services (EAS) is the psychological treatment division of the National Security Agency (NSA). It offers clinical services to all Agency employees and their spouses. EAS is an ideal setting for practicum students to gain relevant experience working with a wide variety of presenting concerns and a broad range of diagnoses. The 9-12 month practicum placement is designed for three doctoral students in psychology who are interested in developing their clinical skills and building their knowledge base. The practical application of this knowledge is in the treatment of a professionally and clinically diverse workforce within the federal government's Intelligence Community. The 9-12 month practicum placement requires approximately 16-20 hours per week, dependent on the practicum students' interests and the requirements of their respective graduate program (this includes administrative responsibilities and...
